PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Dr. Philip Louie recently joined the Spine Team at the Virginia Mason Neuroscience Institute. He received his Bachelors Degree in Business Administration as well as Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at the University of Washington. He subsequently completed his Medical Degree (MD) at the University of Washington School of Medicine. Dr. Louie completed his Orthopaedic Surgery Residency at Rush University Medical Center with Midwest Orthopaedics. At which point, he was a founding member of the International Spine Research & Innovation Initiative (ISRII). During his residency, he developed a training simulator focusing on the fundamental skills in spine surgery, and subsequently won the Golden Apple Chief Resident Teaching Award. Dr. Louie completed an Orthopaedic Spine Surgery Fellow at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications as well as numerous abstracts, book chapters, and regularly presents research at both national and international conferences. As one of the leading authorities on spinal surgery, Dr. Howard An has published more than 300 peer-reviewed original articles, 110 chapters and 20 books on spinal surgery and instrumentation. Dr. An has held the inaugural Morton International Endowed Chair position at Rush University Medical Center since 1997, and is the Director of the Spine Surgery Fellowship Program at Rush. He held the position of Director of the Division of Spine Surgery for 14 years. A medical graduate from the Medical College of Ohio in 1982, Dr. An stayed at the school to complete his internship and residency in orthopedic surgery. He followed his internship and residency with a spine surgery fellowship at Rothman Institute-Pennsylvania Hospital and Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia. Dr. An is a recipient of the 1990 North American Traveling Fellowship from the American Orthopaedic Association, the 1995 Scoliosis Research Society Traveling Fellowship, and the 2011 Kappa Delta Award from Orthopaedic Research Society and American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Dr. An has served as a board and committee member of several medical societies and associations, including the North American Spine Society, International Society for the Study of the Lumbar Spine (president in 2010), Cervical Spine Research Society, Scoliosis Research Society, Orthopaedic Research Society, and American Orthopaedic Association. Dr. Samartzis obtained his undergraduate degree from Northwestern University, and further pursued graduate studies in biological sciences, evidence-based health care, clinical epidemiology, medical sciences, and international studies at Harvard University, University of Oxford (UK), University of Cambridge (UK), Erasmus University (The Netherlands), Charles University (Czech Republic), and London School of Economics and Political Science (UK). He completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the The University of Hong Kong. He went on to become the Gilbert Beebe Fellow of the Radiation and Nuclear Board of the National Academies of Science in Washington D.C. and the United States Department of Energy, the Radiation Epidemiology Branch of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, and at the Radiation Effects Research Foundation (a.k.a. Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission) in Hiroshima, Japan. He has published over 350 peer-reviewed studies in high-impact journals (e.g., Lancet, Arthritis & Rheumatism, JBJS, etc.), book chapters and web-based articles.
This is a high-quality book written by an assembly of well-known authors. The chapters are logically ordered and the topics addressed are all pertinent to spinal care providers. It fills a unique niche since there are no other books that attempt to provide a comprehensive, quick reference on spinal imaging. Therefore, it stands as one of the best options, if not the best option, for this purpose. (c)Doody's Review Service, 2022, Jason Zook, MD (Emerge Orthopedics)
